Edgar Allan Poe once said in his famous essay, The Philosophy of Composition, that "the death then of a beautiful woman is unquestionably the most poetic topic in the world, and equally it is beyond doubt that the lips best suited for such topic are

about the meaning of this statement as it applies to Poe's own writing?
